Abstract

Some hypotheses of the mechanism of action of benzhydrazone, a selective inhibitor of herpes simplex virus glycoprotein biosynthesis, are presented in this paper. Comparative analysis of different models indicates that the drug may interfere with herpes simplex virus DNA. Thus, benzhydrazone seems to act like a bifunctional alkylating agent.
